I didnt have issues with my oil pan spacer/return line on my TN kit or even now. Triple check the return line for excessive length, kinks, etc. Do you have a catch can? If so if its routed wrong it can cause crazy smoke on decel, Ive had that happen to me. If your PCV valve is stuck shut it wont relieve crank case pressure, check that also. Run no more than 5-5.5 qts of oil, not the recommended 6 with the spacer its too much and will essentially smoke out like a chminey Ive also had that happen. Worst case scenario is another case of a TN rebuilt (yes I said rebuilt) turbo that smokes. Your not the first and wont be the last. Good luck!

I actually had a pinched PVC line with my Greddy setup and it smoked like a chimney but caught it quick!
